ABSTRACT:
Roller ski apparatus for supporting a rider on pavement or the like comprising a foot-supporting platform equipped at its opposite ends with skate-type wheel units and a resilient suspension device. The suspension device provides the rider with a smooth glide-like ride closely simulating that experienced in skiing on snow. Control handles pivotally connected to the sides of the platform aid the rider in maintaining balance and in shifting his weight to activate the steering capabilities of the wheel units which have limited swiveling properties. One embodiment includes separate foot-supporting members supported on a common frame for independently pivotable movement about their own longitudinal axis and spring biased to a neutral coplaner position. The apparatus may comprise a single foot-supporting platform or a separate platform for each foot, but each construction embodies a spring suspension for the rearmost wheel unit.
